Here is a great idea on how to beat bookies

[romanwarrior]

I have tried this for 2 months now and won close to 8k without betting more than 200 a game, Thats +39 units after the juice.

Most of it was made in hockey, if you can find a bookie who gives you totals at 10 % juice you can break him, online (e.g bodog, sportsbook etc.) alot of totals are -125 and up, all the way up -150, meaning you have to lay down 125 or 150 bucks to win 100, now if a bookie gives that to you at 110 now you are booking him intead. Obviously the reason the lines are high is because it is more likely that the game will go that way.

Do you think it is a good system or am I just running hot ?

so, tell me if I follow this correctly.
You're saying if your bookie gives you bad lines you can beat him?
Magnificent.

If you also check some lines on nfl you will find the same, for tomorrow :
209 Seattle Seahawks
-3 (-125) this is on bodog, I bet you most bookies will give you this game at -110 correct me if I am wrong but all local bookies I know charge 10 % juice on all nfl games period.
Thus making it a very profitable bet.

You do know what juice means, right?

Unless you're simply advocating line shopping...which, I guess is a correct "strategy," but not necessarily profitable.

And I'll bet you that most locals will be dealing -3.5 -110 which would give a lesser edge to the dog.

I don't get it, online you are laying 125 to win 100, if the local bookie will give you the same line (which I imagine some bookies will move the line but alot of them will leave it the same) but you are laying 110 to win 100 that is not profitable ????

Not all bookies are sharp.
